The most attractive ^ [Background of the Invention] Ion implantation technology has become a large-scale manufacturing industry. A better technique for doping semiconductors with impurities in integrated circuits. A typical ion implanter consists of three parts: (i) a terminal for outputting an ion beam; (ii) a wire for guiding and adjusting the ion beam output by the terminal ; And (iii) a target chamber containing a semiconductor wafer to be implanted from the adjusted ion beam. The terminal includes a source from which a positively charged ion beam is taken. The beam-line element adjusts the energy level and convergence of the positively charged ion beam taken out toward its target wafer. One of the problems encountered with this type of ion implanter is the problem of charging. As the positively charged ion beam continues to impact the target wafer, the surface of the crystal pattern may accumulate a bad excess positive current. The distribution of this accumulated positive charge across the wafer surface is often uneven. The combined electric field on the wafer surface will damage the microcircuits on the wafer. As the implanted circuit elements become smaller, the problem of accumulated surface charge becomes more significant, since smaller circuit elements are more susceptible to damage caused by synthetic electrical fields.习 A known solution to this kind of wafer charging phenomenon is to use ~ _ exhausted plasma shower. A typical plasma shower device includes an arc chamber and a plasma chamber, in which an emotional atmosphere system is ionized to produce a small paper containing 荽.

Description of the invention (>) Plasma of some low energy electrons, the plasma is led out from the arc chamber and enters the plasma chamber, and the ion beam passes through the plasma chamber. The plasma chamber contains a filament which is electrically heated to radiate high-energy electrons into the plasma chamber in a thermionic manner. These high-energy electrons collide with inert gas molecules to produce a plasma, which includes low-energy electrons with sufficient energy to be absorbed into the ion beam. The sucked-in low-energy electrons thus neutralize the net charge of the beam, which in turn reduces the positive charge accumulated on the wafer as the ion beam hits the wafer surface. Such a system is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,804,837 (owned by Farley) 'assigned to the assignee of the present invention' and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Plasma showers for neutralizing positively charged ion beams typically use a helix or "Pigtail" type filament, which has a uniform length along its full V. /-·· Cross-section to generate thermionic electron emission (see, for example, US Patent No. 4,463,255 to Robertson et al. And US Patent No. 5,399,871 to Ito et al.) However, these spiral filaments present several operational obstacles . By way of example, the cross section of the coiled filament provides a uniform resistance ft along one of its lengths, which provides a corresponding uniform heat generation along one of its lengths (ie, the heat transmitted through the filament's feet or ends is like a filament As many as are transmitted through the center). Thus, the end (foot) of the filament provides a significant portion of the total heat conduction erosion / dissipation of the filament. In addition, the uniform cross-section of the pigtail filament creates a temperature gradient along the length of the filament from the midpoint of the coil (the hottest) to the legs of the coil (the coldest). Due to the space charge limitation of the electron emission system, the filament must have a large radiation area to generate suitable electron emission. m can increase the sufficient area of one of the filaments to _______4____ This paper size applies Chinese National Standards (CNS) Λ4 specifications (210X297 public #) A7 _____B7 V. Description of the invention (7) I " The temperature required to achieve thermionic electron emission 'A hot spot must be generated in the temperature gradient of the filament', which is typically close to the midpoint of the length of the coil. The electron emissivity near this midpoint is greater than the low temperature region along the length of the line. Because the divergence of a filament material such as tungsten (W) is exponentially dependent on the emissivity of the electron, the hot spot generates a large amount of crane dissipation, which may eventually find its way to the wafer surface and contaminate the wafer surface. In addition, the high ratio of tungsten emission close to the hot spot reduces the operating life of the coil filament. In addition to the non-uniform tungsten emission along the length of a standard pigtail filament (which will cause wafer contamination), the filament itself Chemical pollution may also occur. For example, hot tungsten filaments chemically combine with nitrogen (N). Nitrogen is a gaseous substance released from a photoresist-coated wafer during implantation, thus forming tungsten dinitride (WN2) on its surface. ) < v The formation of tungsten dinitride on the filament will reduce its thermionic emissivity. In order to achieve the desired emissivity level, more current is supplied to the filament ', which further reduces its efficiency and life. The inclusion of a cylindrical coil body (i.e. a circular cross-section across its length) of a standard coil filament also results in a filament characterized by a high thermal conductivity and heat capacity. Such a filament does not exhibit a rapid thermionic emissivity change in response to a corresponding change in current '. The fast response time of the filament is important for being able to select the filament current during the gaseous phase. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a filament for a plasma shower of an ion implantation system, which provides a uniform temperature along its length to provide a corresponding uniform thermionic electron.

Description of Invention (). The power supply P S 1 applies a potential between 1 仟 V (k V) and −3 k V to the bias electrode 64. The electromagnetic reflector 60 prevents the electrons from drifting upstream toward the terminal 12. At low beam energy, the bias electrode is non-conducting, so that the reflector 60 is based on magnetic reflection only to avoid transmission power loss. The flooding gun assembly 62 includes an arc chamber 70, a beam chamber tube 72, and an extension tube 74. A filament assembly 76 is located in the arc chamber and includes a filament 86 (see also Figures 3 to 6). Filament 8 is electrically heated to a thermionic radiation temperature (approximately 2600 ° K). Filament current is provided by a filament power supply P S 2 (approximately a 5 V). An arc current is established by an arc power supply P S3 C (approximately 25 to 35 V) between the filament 86 and an arc chamber wall 78, so that it is between the filament and the wall 78. The potential difference is approximately 20 to -3 0V. This voltage system is implemented across a thin plasma sheath (cover), which constitutes around the filament 86, providing one of the six ampere thermionic currents that can be drawn from the filament. electric field. An inert gas such as argon [A], Hong Ying 80, is injected into the chamber 70 through an inlet valve 8 1 and a large number of flow controllers 8 2, as is known in the art. A high-density plasma system including low-energy electrons is generated in the arc chamber 70 by collisions of inert gas molecules with higher-energy electrons emitted from the filament 86. After one-week (ambilateral) ambipolar diffusion process, this high-density plasma is then diffused through a small gap 8 3 in the arc chamber wall 7 8. A low-voltage (less than 1 2 V) power supply PS 4 applies a potential to the lead-out gap to accelerate the diffusion ('* Read the precautions on the back first and then fill in a' This page): Install., Ιτ This paper The standard is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) Λ4 specification (210 × 297 total), printed by A7 ____________ B7 __ ^ _____, the Consumer Cooperatives of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. 5. Description of the invention (3) Process. The diffused high-density plasma then interacts with and increases the beam plasma. The low-energy electrons in the high-density plasma become sucked into the ion beam, including positively charged, to neutralize the net charge of the beam, which then decreases as the ion beam hits the wafer surface and accumulates in the ion beam. Positive charge on wafer W. The third to fifth figures show the filament assembly 7 6 in more detail. The assembly 76 includes a pair of feet 85 and a filament 86, and the filament 86 is in the form of a single coil strip (shown separately as a non-linear coil-shaped plan view in the sixth figure). In the preferred embodiment, the 'foot 85 is made of tungsten (w), and the filament 8 β also contains tungsten. Each of the leg portions 85 includes a shaft portion 88, and an end portion 90 that is thicker than the shaft portion. A shoulder portion 92 separates the shaft portion 88 from the end portion 90. The filament assembly 76 is installed in the plasma shower 36, so that the thick end portion 90 is entirely located in the arc chamber 70, and the shaft portion 88 extends through the arc chamber wall 78 and passes through The conductor is connected to the power supply pg 2. The shoulders on the feet 8 5. 9 2 are placed on the inside of the wall 7 §. Just as the released gas molecules (to be able to escape) must first move along one of the walls in a first direction (perpendicular to the axis of the shaft portion 88) and then move in a second direction along the axis of the shaft portion 8 The 'direction' leakage of emotional gas through the feet to the chamber interface is minimized by the shoulders. The surface of the strip filament 86 (sixth figure) becomes a single-coil, and its end portion is installed in the groove 94 in the end portion 90 of the leg portion 85, and is then tightly positioned with an electron beam. The ribbon filament itself has a wide central portion 96 between two narrower end portions 98. The wide central part

Binding and ordering The (/) bit 9 6 provides a sufficient surface area from which a suitable thermal emissivity can occur. In one embodiment, the ribbon filament 86 has a length of approximately 5-0 to 6 · 0 cm (cm), A width of approximately 2.0 to 3.0 cm, and a thickness of approximately 0.5 c nl. The small cross-sectional area of the narrower end portion 98 of the filament reduces the width from the wide central portion 96 to the feet. The thermal conductivity of section 85. This non-uniform cross-section structure also provides equal heat dissipation along the entire length of the filament, so that no hot spots appear in the filament. By cutting the width of the ribbon filament in this way, A uniform temperature is obtained over the entire length of the filament, thereby achieving uniform thermionic emission from the strip filament, and avoiding the area where high tungsten escapes. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. With hot spots, tungsten contamination of wafers can be minimized. For example, 'It has been found that the use of this innovative filament has reduced the tungsten pollution level of the processing wafer to less than 5 parts per million (pp m) and the pollution caused by using conventional filaments is greater than 50 PP m. Furthermore, 'the hot spot eliminated on the filament 86 allows sufficient electron emission' at the same time and operates at a relatively low power level. The power consumption of this innovative filament assembly 76 is 300 watts ( W), on the other hand, it is about 7000W for the conventional plasma shower filament. The power (heat) generated / dissipated by the filament assembly 76 is mostly from the filament 86 instead of the foot 8 5 Consumed because the resistance (per unit length) of the filament is greater than those of the feet. In addition, compared to the conventional pigtail filament with a circular cross section, the filament-like structure of filament 86 provides less heat conduction Rate and heat capacity. Relative to, for example, a conventional filament with a circular cross section, "band-shaped" lamp as used in this article ____— ___— 11 _____ ^ The paper size applies the China National Standard (CNS) Α4 Specifications (210X297 male and T 'Α7 Β7 V. Description of the invention (I Ο) silk A filament is intended, which has a cross-sectional area that is roughly one dimension (eg, width) larger than the other (eg, thickness) at each point along the length. Therefore, compared to conventional filaments, The ribbon filament is more thermally responsive to input power changes. As a result, the control system that controls the filament current and arc current power supplies [PS2 and PS3] can more quickly respond to changes in current (such as a sharp drop in arc current), It will happen when the wafer emits gaseous materials, and the control system can respond more quickly to changes in thermionic emissivity, which is caused by the tungsten dinitride formed on the filament. Therefore, a preferred embodiment of an improved plasma shower for an ion implanter has been described.
